Mar 23
May the light that you owe me
Be the flame that ignites
And sets the world I love to ash
Because when it’s over,
We flicker out like fireflies
As the cinders twirl and dance.

I’ll be more than a memory
I’ll be the reason the rain sings reveries
Tattoo tears with every memory
When you’re at your lowest
And the loneliness creeps
I’ll still be there to haunt your dreams
You’ll never be rid of me.

So go into your retreat
Hide within your shell
And cast off to sea
The waves may carry afar
But when you close your eyes
We **** like its cinema
Bittersweet like scotch and cinnamon
I’ll be there , haunting forever.
